At the developer conference some time ago, Huawei showed the developer preview version of HarmonyOS Next, which completely uses the pure HarmonyOS kernel and is no longer compatible with Android applications. Subsequently, many application developers have reached cooperation with Huawei to develop the HarmonyOS system.
On December 18, 2023, Huawei Device Cloud Service announced the launch of HarmonyOS native application development, "When miHoYo and Genshin Impact of 'Tech Nead Save the World' meet HarmonyOS Next, it will bring more possibilities for cross-platform gameplay and player experience." It is worth noting that it was previously discovered that a new position called "Engine Development (System Orientation) - Genshin Impact" was launched on the recruitment page of miHoYo's official website.
In early December, McDonald's and Alipay announced their cooperation to launch Alipay's HarmonyOS NEXT native app development.
The reason why many developers are actively adapting to HarmonyOS reminders is mainly because the latter's influence continues to expand. According to official information, as of August 2023, there are more than 700 million HarmonyOS ecological devices, 2.2 million+ developers, and 59 billion+ API calls per day. According to Counterpoint's data, in Q1 2023, in the Chinese mobile phone market, HarmonyOS has occupied 8% of the market share, second only to Android and iOS.
